Whats in a name Killarney

Whats in a name
Killarney Ontario
Killarney Lighthouse


When someone mentions Killarney to me of course I think of natural beauty.
I. Muckross National Park  which includes the historic Muckross House, Muckross Lake Killarney Golf Club and of the mountains.
2. The garveys ferrying visitors in and out of town year in year out
3 The Gleneagle Hotel  Where very famous events and entertains take place and perform each year.
Its a tourist retreat in the south of Ireland and use the word the retreat in the sense of relaxation.  As its known as a great place to chill out the world over.  Excellent food superb self-catering and hotel accommodation particularly Killarney Holiday Village.  This place is so famous it has other town named after it.  

Take for instance Killarney , Ontario Canada.  Not sure to those folk connect with their Irish cousin town.  But I searched Killarney as an image and I came up with the following.
Killarney Bay Inn:
Overlooking Killarney Bay and surrounded by our nine hole golf course, Killarney Bay Inn provides the newest accommodations in the area with a fully licensed dining room, lounge and conference facilities. As your host, we have one goal: to make your stay the most comfortable.

We are next door to Killarney Provincial Park, Ontario's "Crown Jewel" of parks and on the most Northern tip of Georgian Bay, or as many say "the gateway to the North Channel". We are only minutes away from Killarney airport  which has a paved 3500' runway and also open year-round.

Comfortable accommodation, excellent home-cooked meals, suites or units with telephone, television (cable) and air conditioning all combine to make your stay restful and carefree.

We can give you boat cruises, shore lunches or fish-fries. You can enjoy nature walks in our pristine Park, cross-country skiing, ice-fishing - or if you prefer, just a wonderful rest

This is the ultimate playground for any outdoor enthusiast, whether it be hiking, kayaking, boating, or just plain relaxing. The options are unlimited.

Have to say from a tourist point of view they both look very similar for another blog I am going to search further into Killarney Ontario they must have a mention of Kerry in their historical records.
